could you elaborate on "cooked them in oil"? did you fry them in a frying pan ? or deep fry? or something else I havnt thought of. probably a dumb question, it just seems it would be hard to cook them through in a fry pan

Not a dumb question. Yes, I did fry them in a frying pan with a little oil. You have to keep turning them ... this helps them get nice and crispy on the outside.

That sounds really good..I think I will try this for dinner tomorrow night..yum yum....Tamara

I cook 6-7 meals a week fora friend doing atkins who cant cook.. Im going to add this to his menu this week

I tried this recipe but I used half hamburg, half garlic and cheese sausage

then I covered it with the taco spiced shredded cheese that you get in the grocery store near all the other shredded cheese. It gave it a spicy edge and went over big Ive had people ask me for the recipe.

thanks for the inspiration.

Yum! I tried this the very first night I read this recipe and it is delish! Thank you for sharing!

For each serving:

1/2 pound fatty hamburger
2 TBLSP Worchester Sauce
1 TSP Tobasco
1 TSP lemon juice
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
3 oz of Pepper Jack Cheese
1/2 stick real butter
Salt
Pepper
2 Michelob-Ultra Beers

Mold Hamburger into a square
Marinate over top salt, pepper, WC Sauce, Tabasco, Lemon Juice
Cover and refrigerate for 4 - 8 hours
Grill Hamburger to liking temp
As Hamburger is almost done, melt butter in pan
Pour mushrooms in butter and stir for a few minutes
Place Hamburger on aluminum foil or in pan on grill
Cover cooked Hamburger with mushrooms
Cover mushrooms with Pepperjack cheese and melt
Twist open a Michelob-Ultra and drink
Repeat last step as desired!

Enjoy... mad

Almost forgot... this meal will have about 5 carbs in it (mostly the mushrooms)

Great! Now, I know what to have for dinner!

hey this sounds good! i'm a mushroom lover, so i'd prolly sautee up some portabellas and toss them in, too. i buy a very cheap low-carb tomato sauce (3g for 1/4 cup), maybe put a touch of that in, too.

i've always cooked my meatballs in the oven (350 for round 20 minutes). does the frying help make them more juicy?

thanks for the idea!

I did this except I didn't fry them, I baked them until they were done. They were just slightly flat at the bottom, but that was okay. Then I took some pasta sauce with a little water so it wouldn't burn at the bottom and I dropped the meatballs in it. I cooked them down and served them on a plate. It was really good. My picky 6 yr old loved them! I will make this again. Thanks.

I'd *love* to make this tonight for dinner since I've already got hamburger thawed but I'm very much a "need directions" kind of gal.

Can someone tell me how many eggs, how much hamburger used? Does the hamburger finish cooking in the oven or does it get thoroughly cooked in the frying pan with the oil?

Sniff...

I usually prefer to bake my meatballs right from the start, and then I can do other things, rather than having to watch and turn them in a frying pan.

So, I suppose after the initial cooking, you could just add the vegetables and cheese, and return them to the oven.
